SPAIN attracts millions of Brits every year, so finding somewhere away from the crowds can be quite tricky. Luckily enough, there's one tiny Spanish island hat seems to have gone unnoticed by most British holidaymakers. Timon van Basten has lived in Spain for the last five years and works as a tour guide in the country.
With his knowledge of the travel industry, it's safe to say he knows exactly where holidaymakers to stay our their next trip to the country. While Canary Islands like Tenerife, Lanzarote and Fuerteventura remain popular among Brits, Timon recommended a trip to El Hierro - the second smallest of the islands. Timon told Euro News : "The tiny, remote island has an end-of-the-world vibe with lava flows, volcanic craters, and lush cliffs plunging into the Atlantic.
"Explore at your own pace, with quaint towns, secluded beaches, and tranquil hiking trails to discover." Because the island is the furthest south of the group, it boasts some of the best weather in the Canary Islands. The island has a volcanic and mountainous landscape complete with lush pine forests and natural pools.
One of the island's top attractions is the El Tamaduste Pool , which is described as an "ideal place to swim or enjoy water sports like diving or paddle boarding" on the attraction's website . The natural pool is a great place to take a refreshing dip while being protected from strong waves. There's also La Restinga - a marine reserve located at the southernmost tip of El Hierro.
